Discover the joy of elevating your knitting projects with a charming stitch detail woven into a otherwise unadorned sweater! This delightful cardigan pattern is designed to be worked sideways, allowing you to seamlessly create stunning elements centered at both the front and back. The standout feature of this cardigan is a lovely fan motif that adorns the garter stitch cuffs, beautifully transitioning into a pair of elegant purl ribs that extend gracefully to the neckline. For added visual interest, the pieces culminate at the center back with a few rows of garter stitch, expertly forming a vertical panel that adds depth and texture to your design.

To assemble your cardigan, you can join the pieces using a three-needle bind off for a sturdy finish, or if you prefer a more delicate touch, you can opt for grafting. The collar adds yet another element of simplicity and style, as it is picked up and worked in matching garter stitch, enhancing the overall aesthetic of this thoughtful design.

The sample shown in this pattern was knit using Lark yarn by Quince & Co. in the beautiful shade of Clay, offering both comfort and versatility for your wardrobe.

Gauge: 18 stitches and 24 rows = 4 inches in stockinette stitch, ensuring your cardigan fits perfectly. This pattern is perfect for adventurous knitters looking to sprinkle some creativity into their projects while enjoying the meditative process of knitting.

Whether you’re a seasoned knitter or just starting out, this easy-to-follow cardigan pattern combines practicality with an aesthetic flair, making it a must-have addition to your knitting repertoire. Explore the world of knitting and create your own unique cardigan masterpiece today!
